Trailer for the series "The Squid Game" (Netflix)

Officially: "The Squid Game" is the series that launched the most successful in the history of Netflix - the streaming service announced today.

In doing so, she overtook "Bridgerton," the previous series that held the record.



In total, 111 million subscribers of the streaming service worldwide sampled at least two minutes of the Korean series, which became an international cultural phenomenon in the first 27 days of its release - well over 82 million users did so with the British period series "Bridgerton" on 28 Days.

As you may recall, "Bridgerton" came out during the closing times of the end of 2020, when many people were sitting in their homes looking for something to look forward to. As can be understood from the figure itself, "The Squid Game" is also the most successful foreign series in the history of Netflix, easily surpassing series such as the Spanish "House of Paper" and "Elite", the French "Lufen" and the German "Apple".



The "Squid Game" figure is particularly surprising given that this is not a series for everyone. It is full of explicit and severe violence, organs crashing, horrific deaths and shed minds. Really not as light and endearing as "Bridgerton" or telenovela and easy to digest like "Paper House". It may well be that this is why "playing squid" ultimately does not become a series as

seen in

Netflix, that means that many viewers sampled it because of the buzz, but do not go beyond chapter or two.Netflix will probably only reveal this figure at a later stage.
